Bring Your Summer Holidays Home

A minimalist interior with a plywood built in corner seat upholstered with waves, Seascape linen by Abigail Edwards with a concrete floor and sculptural accessories and lots of house plants

Bring the relaxed calm of the beach in to your home. The soothing and raw texture of linen is practical and works perfectly for relaxed yet sophisticated interiors. The Summer colour way of Seascape Linen is made from 50% recycled linen fibres meaning not only is it luxuriously natural, but you can also relax knowing that it is sustainable and will bring a subtle, warm version of beach style into your home.

Layer the elements of your room together, hard surfaces with soft. The natural movement of linen, paired with the simplicity of plywood and concrete, and finished with a carefully curated selection of sculptural accessories will make your home modern, clean and simple, without feeling themed. This mix of natural materials and gentle tones is a fool proof way to create a laid back, timeless atmosphere within your home.

The imperfect beauty of hand made cushion covers (shown here in Seascape Dusk) and hand made crockery are highlighted against the clean lines and texture of concrete and metal. Or, use for upholstery on a bespoke bench to create a soothing place to contemplate the view as seen below.

Be inspired by the colours of the coast and use the hues of the surrounding landscape as a starting point for your decorating scheme. Add your personal mementos and found objects, like carefully chosen pebbles from the beach to add to the ongoing emotional story of your home.

Staying by the sea always makes me want to move to the coast, and these are small ways to bring the soothing nature of beach side holidays home with you to wherever you live, it doesn’t have to be in a beach house.
